Introduction to Excel Financial Functions
The excel financial functions have been made available to execute a variety of financial calculations,
including calculations of yield, investment valuations, interest rates, internal rate of return, asset
depreciation, and payments. These financial functions can be, however, classified into different categories
so as to enable you to stumble on the required function.
1. Present Value (PV) equivalent to the value of the load or savings today. This function is used to estimate
the loan size that could be paid off provided a periodic payment over a provided total number of payments
and a provided periodic interest rate.
2. Interest Rate per period (RATE) equivalent to the interest rate, generally monthly. This function is used to
calculate the periodic interest rate required to pay off a provided present value with a provided periodic
payment and a total number of payments.
3. Number of payment periods (NPER) equivalent to number of payment periods. This function is used to
evaluate the total number of payment periods required to pay off a given present value with a provided
payment and periodic interest rate.
4. Periodic payment (PMT) equivalent to the payment per period. This function is used for calculating the
fixed periodic payment with a given present value, periodic interest rate, and the total number of payments.
If any three of the aforesaid quantities are provided, the fourth one can be calculated easily.
